Here I am now,
alone in a cage,
I'm confused,
I am sad,
I've been here 3 days.

Although I have water
and plenty of food
Oh, why am I here,
God what did I do?

There are others around me
some whine and some bark,
others are silent
they just sleep in the dark.

Life was always so happy
when I was a pup,
but my family stopped caring
when I grew up.

I wanted attention
so I'd leap and I'd bark.
But instead of some love
I was thrown out in the dark.

I pray that some day
I will be adopted again,
someone please open your heart,
let me come in!

But wait,
I hear footsteps
they are coming my way.
It is those nice people
who were here yesterday.

They took me for a walk,
then gave me a hug.
Just a day later
I was asleep on their rug.

They promised to love me
and forever I'll stay.
In turn I will lick them
and be loyal every day.

Someday I will have to leave them
when I cross the bridge.
But, in the meantime
I will love them
and help raid the fridge.

Tonight once again
I will cross my paws and pray
for those still in their cages
to find a new home today.
